Accessibility statement

No overlay widget

webcamtests.wiki does not use a third-party accessibility overlay script. Those tools sit on top of a page and try to patch problems with JavaScript at runtime — they don't fix the underlying markup, and in practice they're unreliable with screen readers and often get flagged in accessibility lawsuits themselves. Instead, the fixes below are built directly into the site's code.

What's actually been done

• Every page has a single, real <h1> and a logical heading order.
• Color contrast is checked against the WCAG 2.1 AA 4.5:1 threshold (3:1 for large text and UI components) using the actual relative-luminance formula before shipping any design token.
• The webcam, lighting-check, and permission-diagnostic tools are fully keyboard-operable, and all interactive controls carry visible focus states.
• The language switcher and every localized page carry the correct lang and dir attributes, so screen readers pronounce Hebrew and Arabic content correctly and layout mirrors properly for RTL.
• Status changes in the test tools are announced as text, not conveyed by color or animation alone.

What we're still working on

This is an ongoing pass, not a finished checklist. Full screen-reader testing (VoiceOver/NVDA) across every template is still open.
